Hello, Just looking for someone to talk to after our first failed ICSI attempt.
Got the negative result yesterday and feeling very chitty.
We have been trying to get pregnant for over 4 years now and had to wait over a year to get on the waiting list.
Got 7 eggs after extraction, 6 fertilised but only 2 suitable for transfer, none to freeze unfortunately.
Not sure what happens next but thats our NHS attempt down the pan, we have funds for a few more goes but im finding it hard to be optimistic..
Hi darryl- am so sorry it didn't work for you, it really is the worst thing but please try not to give up you have to believe that one day you will get there and your dream will come true. For some reason we have to go through all this pain and heartache to achieve our dreams. You need to take time to grieve and to look after yourself.
I wish you luck with the future and hope the next time works for you

So sorry to hear that . I am also doing my first IVF on Dec 19 th . Actullay Doctor has already retrievd my eggs . All the eggs are frozen. But could not do the Fresh Embryo transfer . I got sick at that time .
Now I am doing the procedure for the Frozen Embryo transfer .
We have our transfer on Dec 18 -19 . I have my ultrasound on Friday Dec 15 .
Then they will check my uterine linning . If everything works fine , then they do the transfer . So my pregnancy test is going to be some where at the end of this year or at the beginning of the new year .

I'm new to the site and going through my second ICSI cycle. On my first attempt, like you we had six eggs but only two fertilised. I was totally devastated - which seems silly seeing as I promised myself that I would try and remain realistic about our chances. Of course it is hard to be optimistic right now while you are experiencing immense disappointment. But I believe you have to allow yourself to grieve. You know what they say about time being a great healer - for now just try to enjoy your christmas - and wait until next year before making decisions about what happens next.
Daryl---I just had my first attempt fail in November as well. It sucks. At first I was really upset--cried alot--but now I can at least get through most days without bursting in to tears. Unless someone asks me about it, because of course I blabbed to pretty much the whole world that we were trying and now I have to tell the whole world that I'm not pregnant. I definitely won't make that mistake again--next time we'll just tell a very select few! We're going to try a frozen cycle in January, so here's hoping. I'm going to try to relax more this time (I don't know how, but I'm going to try) and pray, pray, pray!!!!!! Good luck to you as well and hope that things get better!
I'm so sorry Daryl,My first attempt was a failure as well with me recieving the news two days before Christmas.we had an ectopic pregnancy last year and now this and to make matters worse ,insurance wont cover a second try but miracles have and will happen.So dont give up and I know that after our grief Joy will come.
